0:00:27 > 0:00:33Welcome to the fostering panel, Mr and Mrs Hollins.

0:00:33 > 0:00:34It's a pleasure.

0:00:34 > 0:00:40That's unusual. People are normally terrified.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42And sometimes with good reason.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45How do you mean? It's just a formality.

0:00:45 > 0:00:47That was a joke.

0:00:48 > 0:00:54On the other hand, what on earth makes you think that you would be good carers?

0:00:54 > 0:00:56I beg your pardon?

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Just answer the question.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Karen and I are a solid couple and we're very good parents.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03Nice try, PC Plod.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Sergeant. Silence.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08You can't speak to us like this!

0:01:08 > 0:01:13I will speak to you just exactly as I please, Gobby Hollins.

0:01:14 > 0:01:18Hang on a minute! Take her glasses off.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Oh, you're Zara! No, I'm not.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Yes, you are!

0:01:27 > 0:01:30This woman is a work colleague in disguise!

0:01:33 > 0:01:38What are you lot doing here? Al, Al, Al, what's going on?

0:01:38 > 0:01:40It's Doctor Haskey, thank you, Gobby.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Did you deliberately reverse over her?

0:01:42 > 0:01:43Cos I would have done.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45That is out of order. Silence!

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Aren't you a little old for this?

0:01:48 > 0:01:51Won't the children think that you're grandparents and not parents?

0:01:51 > 0:01:53How are you going to keep up with them?

0:01:53 > 0:01:56I mean, do you both have mobility scooters?

0:01:56 > 0:01:59Considering your involvement with the treehouse investigation,

0:01:59 > 0:02:04we do have some reservations regarding your intentions.

0:02:04 > 0:02:05We helped with that investigation.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08You harboured a suspect!

0:02:08 > 0:02:11How can we approve your applications,

0:02:11 > 0:02:16if you cannot even remember the joy of bringing up your own children?

0:02:16 > 0:02:20And what if you lose your marbles again?

0:02:20 > 0:02:22What if you leave a vulnerable child by the road

0:02:22 > 0:02:24just outside of...

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Droitwich? TUTTING

0:02:26 > 0:02:29That happened once with Jack!

0:02:29 > 0:02:30That you can remember.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33You all said that we would be great.

0:02:34 > 0:02:35You all said it.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37We lied.

0:02:37 > 0:02:38No!

0:02:42 > 0:02:45So that's why I'm not wearing the other jacket.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47Karen, it was only a dream.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Yeah, but maybe there's some truth in it, maybe nobody believes in us.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52And maybe it's just you being daft.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55This fostering stuff's really getting to you, isn't it?

0:02:55 > 0:02:57You don't say!

0:02:57 > 0:02:59All I know is they're desperate for good foster carers.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04There was this kid on the Churchill, right,

0:03:04 > 0:03:06he went to live with his nan after his mum died.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09His nan was in her 70s and she just couldn't cope with

0:03:09 > 0:03:11this angry, grieving teenager, so he ended up in care.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14He went off the rails, got into trouble with the police,

0:03:14 > 0:03:15was sent to young offenders.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Maybe things would have been different for him

0:03:17 > 0:03:20if he'd been sent to people like you and Rob.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Good morning, Mrs Carson!

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Mrs Tembe! I could set my watch by you.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Happy birthday.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35Oh, Cassie! Oh! I thought my birthday was a secret!

0:03:35 > 0:03:39Oh, that's beautiful. Thank you! I had no idea it was your birthday.

0:03:39 > 0:03:4260! I was trying to keep it under my hat!

0:03:42 > 0:03:44Are you going to be doing anything special?

0:03:44 > 0:03:46A quiet meal. You know, just me and Bill.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53Forgive me for saying, you seem a little disappointed.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Not really the quiet meal type, am I?

0:04:03 > 0:04:05She just passed her MOT. Well pleased.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08Why don't you just get a new one? No.

0:04:08 > 0:04:09Morning, James!

0:04:09 > 0:04:12I just think if you've got a good car, you should hang on to it.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Jimmi Clay, are you bottling out! Of what?

0:04:15 > 0:04:17The casino. No, I'm looking forward to it.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19I just don't like being called James.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Mr Bond, I like that. Commander Bond is even better.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24Commander? Does it for me.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Well, better get on! You coming with us, Sid? Oh, no, no.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29I tried it. Not for me.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Aw, come on, you only live once. Shouldn't that be twice?

0:04:36 > 0:04:38SAT NAV: Please turn left.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41It's a field! Does this look like a tractor?

0:04:41 > 0:04:44HE SIGHS

0:04:44 > 0:04:47OK, stop panicking and think!

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Right.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Straight ahead, look for a road sign.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55CAR BEEPS

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Aw, come on! What?

0:04:57 > 0:04:59No!

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Yeah, it's me, Marcus. I've run out of fuel.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13I've no idea where I am.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16Oh, hang on - Tittlemouse Lane.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19It doesn't matter how I got here!

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Look, please, just tell me where the nearest petrol station is.

0:05:24 > 0:05:25You've got to be kidding.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29I've told you, I'll make it!

0:05:44 > 0:05:45Thank you.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48Oh, I wonder who these are from?

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Oh, Stanley Perks.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Who?

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Managing Director of Golburn's Pharmaceuticals.

0:05:57 > 0:05:58I cannot accept these.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Why not? We're already doing business with them.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04It's just a goodwill thing. Even so, it does not seem appropriate.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08And, yet, it seems churlish to return them.

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Yeah, we might lose our 20% discount!

0:06:15 > 0:06:16Would you like them, Mrs Hollins?

0:06:16 > 0:06:19After all, this is a very special day for you.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Roughly translated, "Here's a bunch of flowers to cheer you up."

0:06:24 > 0:06:29Well, yes. "After you get rejected by the fostering panel."

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Now, why would you think that?

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Do you know, I'm going to go.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40Mrs Hollins, good luck.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42You think I need it, don't you?

0:06:42 > 0:06:43Yeah.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54PHONE RINGS

0:06:56 > 0:06:58Yeah, I'm just filling up the...

0:07:01 > 0:07:03What do you mean, no response. Since when?

0:07:06 > 0:07:09OK, OK, I'm doing my best.

0:07:09 > 0:07:10I'll be there!

0:07:18 > 0:07:21I was passing by and I thought, you know what, I'm going to drop in

0:07:21 > 0:07:24on my old mucker, and see how he is a-diddling!

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Wow. What's up?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Why do you say there's something up?

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Because I am your "old mucker".

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Oh, right, well, I can see you're busy, you've got patients waiting.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Do you fancy a pint after work?

0:07:36 > 0:07:38I can't, I'm going to the casino with Ayesha and Emma.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Why don't you come along? No, thanks.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Why on earth are you going to a casino?

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Me and Ayesha have got this Bond thing going.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48You could be Felix Leiter.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Ha! Felix Leiter!

0:07:50 > 0:07:53Remember that bit when he gets eaten by sharks in Licence To Kill?

0:07:53 > 0:07:56Yes. That is a dreadful film.

0:07:56 > 0:07:57Well, have a nice time.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00You'll come away with empty pockets and broken dreams.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01Later this week, then?

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Um, yes. Yeah, please.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Cheers.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09So, you see, I'm thinking it's a warning.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11My great-grandmother had second sight and I think

0:08:11 > 0:08:13maybe I'm the same. Shh! Don't be talking like that!

0:08:13 > 0:08:17If anybody hears you, we'll be done for. Get a grip, will you?

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Gina's late. She'll be here, she promised.

0:08:25 > 0:08:26Mr and Mrs Hollins?

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Hi, I'm John McKendrick, Chair of the fostering panel.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32Good to meet you both. I've just had a call from Gina,

0:08:32 > 0:08:34she asked me to give you her apologies. She's not coming?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Sadly, no. She's dealing with an urgent placement.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40Told you. Do we reschedule, do we?

0:08:40 > 0:08:43No, no, no, no need to reschedule. Gina did explain that

0:08:43 > 0:08:46she wouldn't be part of the panel? Yes, yes, no...

0:08:46 > 0:08:49I understand how nerve-racking this can be. It's OK.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51Are you having second thoughts? No, no!

0:08:51 > 0:08:53After all that training? You must be joking!

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Would you like a couple of moments?

0:08:55 > 0:08:58No, no, let's get it over and done with. If you know what I mean.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00I do know, yes. Well, don't worry.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02If you'd like to follow me.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10Happy Birthday!

0:09:10 > 0:09:14Oh, Mrs Tembe, you shouldn't have bothered.

0:09:14 > 0:09:19Nonsense. You are a much-loved member of the community.

0:09:19 > 0:09:20You deserve the fuss!

0:09:20 > 0:09:24Oh, chrysanths are my favourite flowers, how did you know?

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Now, me daughter's rang twice, asking to speak to Bill.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31So there may be a surprise after all.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33I'm going to have to my hair and my nails done.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35I might even need a lip wax.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37Oh, duty calls.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41Get off the road, you stupid woman!

0:09:41 > 0:09:44Come on everyone, your right of way.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Did you hear me, you silly cow?

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Loud and clear. I've got an important meeting.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51It can wait a few seconds. No, it can't.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Get back in your car, please, sir.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58I have taken your photograph and I have your registration.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Now do as this lady says or I will call the police.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02You don't understand.

0:10:02 > 0:10:03I think you need to take five.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06I don't have five! Why won't anyone listen?!

0:10:09 > 0:10:11Our Jack and Immie are like chalk and cheese.

0:10:11 > 0:10:12They're always fighting.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15Well, when I say fighting, I don't mean fisticuffs...

0:10:15 > 0:10:17A typical brother and sister. Yeah, yeah.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20They'd do anything for each other, at the end of the day.

0:10:20 > 0:10:24Me and Rob, we've tried to bring them up with the right values.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27Well, that's good to hear. Thank you, Mrs Hollins.

0:10:27 > 0:10:32So, perhaps we could talk about Imogen's problem with shoplifting?

0:10:32 > 0:10:36Mr Hollins, we understand that you asked her to leave the family home?

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Yes, I did, but it was only temporary.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40Go on.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43It's not like I kicked her out into the streets or anything.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46She stayed with a very good friend of mine, Brian Miles,

0:10:46 > 0:10:47who's also a police officer.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50Him and his wife, they're good people and they looked after her.

0:10:50 > 0:10:51But why did you ask her to leave?

0:10:51 > 0:10:54Oh, that's difficult to answer.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Was it because, as a police officer,

0:10:57 > 0:11:00you couldn't handle your daughter having a criminal record?

0:11:00 > 0:11:03Yeah, I suppose it was.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05I'm not proud of what I did.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06And what do you think now?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08What do I think now? Erm...

0:11:08 > 0:11:12What I think now is that maybe I could have been more understanding.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15At the time, Karen and I, we were having personal issues.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Everything was mixed up. It upset Immie.

0:11:18 > 0:11:19But I love my daughter.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21We understand this is painful, Mr Hollins,

0:11:21 > 0:11:24but we need to be sure you that you can handle children with

0:11:24 > 0:11:26similar, or even worse, issues.

0:11:26 > 0:11:30Of course. I deal with kids with these kind of problems every day,

0:11:30 > 0:11:34and, in my mind, there's nothing more tragic than seeing one of them

0:11:34 > 0:11:38end up in a young offenders' institution.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40So you see your role as one of support?

0:11:40 > 0:11:44Yeah, I mean, obviously I try and steer them away from crime.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46But they don't want to listen to me, all of them, because...

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Well, because I'm a copper. Well, yes...

0:11:49 > 0:11:51And, before you ask, sorry to interrupt and ask the next question.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55That is one of my biggest worries,

0:11:55 > 0:11:57because I'm going to get it a lot, aren't I?

0:11:57 > 0:12:00Indeed, and in your own home.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Some of these children can be quite disruptive.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05Yeah. Karen and I have discussed this with Gina,

0:12:05 > 0:12:08and we both understand that it's going to be hard to win their trust,

0:12:08 > 0:12:11but I am up for it.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13I'm up for it big time.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21SAT NAV: 'Please turn right.'

0:12:21 > 0:12:23You told me to turn right.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25I turned right!

0:12:25 > 0:12:27HE GROANS

0:12:37 > 0:12:40SHE SCREAMS AND BRAKES SCREECH

0:12:42 > 0:12:44ENGINE PURRS

0:12:48 > 0:12:50ENGINE STOPS

0:12:55 > 0:12:56I'm all right, love. Thanks.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59Thank you. SHE BREATHES HEAVILY

0:12:59 > 0:13:01I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Get off!

0:13:01 > 0:13:03Please, let me help you. I'm all right.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Look, ring the police. I deserve it!

0:13:05 > 0:13:07And an ambulance - you need an ambulance!

0:13:07 > 0:13:10No, don't move. You might have internal injuries!

0:13:10 > 0:13:12You didn't hit me. I tripped getting out of the way.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Calm down, will you? Do you feel dizzy or anything?

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Will you stop treating me like an old biddy?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19I told you, I'm all right!

0:13:19 > 0:13:21Look, that leg needs attention.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24I'd take you to the hospital, but I don't know where it is.

0:13:24 > 0:13:25No way am I getting in a car with you!

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Well, tell me what I can do, then. Just name it. Anything at all.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31What about your meeting?

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Well, it's... It's too late.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38It makes no difference whether I'm there or not.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40SHE EXHALES

0:13:40 > 0:13:43There's a surgery round the corner.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Do you think you can get me there in one piece?

0:13:45 > 0:13:47If you give me directions.

0:13:47 > 0:13:48You can't miss it.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50Trust me, I can. Oh.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54How did your memory loss impact on your life?

0:13:54 > 0:13:57I couldn't remember stuff.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59Well, I'll narrow it down a bit, then.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02What was the one thing you found hardest to handle?

0:14:04 > 0:14:06That I couldn't be a mum to my kids.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09I couldn't even recognise them at first.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11You had to get to know them all over again.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14I thought I was a teenager.

0:14:14 > 0:14:18I thought that my own mum was still alive.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20I didn't recognise Rob.

0:14:20 > 0:14:21Erm...

0:14:21 > 0:14:25I thought he was a dirty old man coming on to me.

0:14:25 > 0:14:29Was there any aspect of being a teenager that you enjoyed?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Erm, no responsibility.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Life without the pressure of motherhood?

0:14:36 > 0:14:38I'm not like that now!

0:14:38 > 0:14:42Well, it's the here and now we're interested in -

0:14:42 > 0:14:44how things are different and how you've moved on.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Your children were away at university at the time, yes?

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Yeah, they had their own lives.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's not like they were little and needing me... No.

0:14:51 > 0:14:55So, say they were home now 24/7,

0:14:55 > 0:14:57would the relationship be back to normal?

0:14:57 > 0:15:00And is it, in any sense, a relief that they're not with you?

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Oh, no.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05If anything, I wish that they were there 24/7,

0:15:05 > 0:15:10but if you love your kids, you've got to give them their independence.

0:15:11 > 0:15:12We're...

0:15:12 > 0:15:15We're very, very proud of them. HER VOICE BREAKS

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Are you all right, Mrs Hollins? Yes.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Nearly there.

0:15:20 > 0:15:23Your consultant says that your memory loss may return -

0:15:23 > 0:15:25that must be something of a dark cloud.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27I try not to think about it.

0:15:27 > 0:15:28It's, you know...

0:15:28 > 0:15:32It's not going to do anybody good, worrying about it, so...

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Anything else?

0:15:36 > 0:15:37Judith?

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Mr and Mrs Hollins, thank you very much for your time.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44If you wouldn't mind waiting outside a few moments,

0:15:44 > 0:15:45while we have a discussion?

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Thank you. Thank you.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Thank you.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56Right, so, what do we think?

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Judith, did you want to say something? Yes.

0:15:58 > 0:16:03Ooh. I feel as if I've turned myself inside out.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05That Judith woman was in my dream.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07Really? She's nothing like Zara.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08She's got the same evil eye.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Yeah, she has, I'll give you that, but don't worry about it, OK?

0:16:11 > 0:16:14They'll either approve us or they won't.

0:16:14 > 0:16:16ROB SIGHS

0:16:16 > 0:16:19It's like being fired off The Apprentice.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22Well, they're the ones losing out, and I'm going to tell them so,

0:16:22 > 0:16:25and I'm going to look that Judith woman in the eye when I do!

0:16:27 > 0:16:31I'm all right, love. Don't you worry.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34I won't be seeing you later, will I?

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Oh, what a shame.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40Right. See you tomorrow, then, eh?

0:16:40 > 0:16:44Oh, me daughter's definitely doing me a surprise birthday party for me,

0:16:44 > 0:16:45or she'd be down here like a shot!

0:16:45 > 0:16:47It's your birthday!

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Oh, I've spoilt it.

0:16:49 > 0:16:50No, you haven't.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52I hope you are proud of yourself, young man!

0:16:52 > 0:16:54Not particularly, no.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56I blame myself. I should have called the police.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Don't beat yourself up. Nobody died.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02Your behaviour today has been reprehensible.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Tell me something I don't know.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06My family thinks I'm a waste of space, so join the club.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10I am simply pointing out that there are more important things in life

0:17:10 > 0:17:11than a business meeting.

0:17:11 > 0:17:12It wasn't a business meeting.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14It is a matter of respect...

0:17:14 > 0:17:17I was going to see my mum at St Phil's.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19She's...

0:17:19 > 0:17:21HE SIGHS

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Aw...

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Shouldn't one of us go after him?

0:17:32 > 0:17:36My sister rang me yesterday afternoon.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38I should come to see Mum.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45She's had cancer for a while now.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48She's fought it off so many times, but...

0:17:51 > 0:17:52..they say there's no hope now

0:17:52 > 0:17:55and the end is probably going to be very soon.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57I am so sorry.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01Well, she's unconscious now, so she won't even know if I'm there or not.

0:18:01 > 0:18:02She may.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04And all I'll get is earache from my sister!

0:18:04 > 0:18:08Yeah, and if you do not go, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Hey, none of this is my fault!

0:18:10 > 0:18:14I would have been there on time if...if...

0:18:14 > 0:18:16If you had not been so terrified,

0:18:16 > 0:18:18if you were able to concentrate,

0:18:18 > 0:18:20if...

0:18:22 > 0:18:26Deep down, I think you did not want to get there.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29I can see you have a high opinion of me(!)

0:18:29 > 0:18:32Grief can affect us all in very different ways.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39What are you scared of?

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Seeing her ill like that?

0:18:41 > 0:18:44Yeah, but...

0:18:46 > 0:18:49..it's knowing that I could have come home more.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52Where was I when it mattered? When I could have helped?

0:18:56 > 0:19:00My sister put her life on hold to care for my mum.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06I don't deserve to be at that bedside.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12We cannot change what has happened in the past -

0:19:12 > 0:19:16only the present and the future.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18You are a young man.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20The decisions that you make now will affect you

0:19:20 > 0:19:22for the rest of your life.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Would you like me to call the cab?

0:19:31 > 0:19:33When you get there,

0:19:33 > 0:19:38you plant both feet firmly on the ground

0:19:38 > 0:19:39and take a deep breath.

0:19:45 > 0:19:49Yeah. It has always worked for me.

0:19:49 > 0:19:50Thank you.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55Mr and Mrs Hollins, the panel has reached a decision...

0:19:55 > 0:19:56I've got something I want to say!

0:19:56 > 0:19:58I don't think that you... No, before you...

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Mrs Hollins, before you do,

0:20:00 > 0:20:03it's my pleasure to inform you that we think you

0:20:03 > 0:20:06would make excellent foster carers.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09You've been approved. Congratulations.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16No. Oh, no, come on! Since when was James Bond a one-woman man?

0:21:16 > 0:21:19Yeah, but she's a baddie. Yeah, but that's the best kind.

0:21:20 > 0:21:24Do you know what? I've realised that I love a challenge.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26And isn't that brilliant?

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Oh, Gina! No, I'm so sorry, but we've been drinking.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40We were celebrating and we've had a couple of...

0:25:40 > 0:25:42three bottles of...

0:25:42 > 0:25:45and we're hammered.

0:25:45 > 0:25:46That's...

0:25:48 > 0:25:52Oh, do you ever feel that life has dealt you a really bad hand

0:25:52 > 0:25:56and that nothing is ever going to change that?

0:25:56 > 0:25:58Frequently. It's not just us, though, is it?

0:25:58 > 0:26:00I mean, how many people do you know who've had

0:26:00 > 0:26:03some kind of a blow or another?

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Oh, I'm sorry. It's the booze talking. Ignore me.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07No, no, no, no, it's life,

0:26:07 > 0:26:09and you're right, it sucks a lot of the time.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11All of the time.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Emma, come on. You're the one who's been dragging me out my shell,

0:26:14 > 0:26:16and getting me to cut loose and strut my stuff, you know?

0:26:16 > 0:26:19And, granted, most of the people here probably think

0:26:19 > 0:26:20that I'm some overdressed idiot.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24Or, strike that, overdressed, slightly drunk

0:26:24 > 0:26:26and probably skint idiot.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29No, they don't! You look a real pro.

0:26:29 > 0:26:31Well, a pro what?

0:26:31 > 0:26:34But the reason that I look and feel this good is

0:26:34 > 0:26:36because I'm sat here with you, the most beautiful woman in the room.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38That really is the booze talking.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40No, it's true.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43I mean, you have to grab what you can of the good stuff, right?

0:26:52 > 0:26:57Erm, we've had a lot to drink and I don't want to take advantage.

0:26:57 > 0:26:58Are you kidding?

0:27:16 > 0:27:18Morning. Are you going to be much longer?

0:27:18 > 0:27:21And whatever concerns you may have,

0:27:21 > 0:27:22you need to address them now.

0:27:22 > 0:27:24If this isn't the position for you,

0:27:24 > 0:27:26then you need to be upfront about it.

0:27:26 > 0:27:27No, no. I can do it.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28And how much for this comic?

0:27:28 > 0:27:31OK! Yes! ?15. Will ?15 do?

0:27:31 > 0:27:33One-five pounds sterling for the Omega League? Yes, please.
